Great cruise spoiled by tendering

Wanted to see Australia and this cruise had excellent itinerary. Unfortunately we didn't see much of each port due to tendering. Arrived in Cairns at 9am and didn't get to city until 13.30 due to tendering then shuttle we were there overnight so not so bad although it took 2hrs to get back in the evening. Airllie beach once again had to queue for tender tickets from 7am to try and get off early ...

We traveled first for 30 days on the Holland America Noordam visiting Southern Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand. From there we went on the Norwegian Jewel visiting Northern Australia, Southeast Asia, China and Japan for 40 additional days. Comparing the two ship experiences, we liked the Holland America cruise experience better but they both had pros and cons. In general, even though the ...

This was to have been a cruise of a lifetime, 18 days from Sydney to Singapore but sadly Norwegian let us down. The ports of call were fantastic and we had such high expectations but we unexpectedly found that virtually all of the ports involved a tender and/or shuttle bus and these were unacceptably long, hot and disorganised. In order to ensure getting off the ship we had to get up at 6 am to ...

We choose this cruise because of its destinations and we have cruised with Norwegian previously and had a very good experience on the spirit. Hence we thought we would experience the same level of service on the jewel however we were thoroughly disappointed this time around. The excursions were disappointing and on one we had no opportunity of purchasing food / drink after spending 5 hrs in ...

We chose this cruise because of the itinerary and all the new ports of call. We booked the 40 day from Sydney Australia to Tokyo Japan. We were in a suite 10500 which was at the front of the ship and we loved the position and balcony. Our butler and cabin steward were friendly and helpful. Thank goodness we had the suite I am not sure I could have survived 40 days in any other type of cabin. We ...

Loved the opportunity to sail through a part of India where I could see both various wildlife in their natural environment and observe local village life. Our shore excursions were very interesting both culturally and nature wise. At Kaziranga National Park, we had an early morning elephant safari, followed by an afternoon jeep safari. For me the highlight of the experience was twofold. ...

So many organisational issues, and poor customer services issues, such a shame!

We chose this cruise due to the itinerary. However, NCL, were obviously trying to save costs at every opportunity, by arriving at container ports, instead of main ports, or using tenders and buses. Unfortunately, they were completely dis-organised in these tender operations which resulted in guests having to get up at 6 am in the Morning to get a ticket to get on a tender. Even when you had a ...

First time on Silversea and Silver Whisper

We decide to chose a top end cruise line having previously been many times with Princess, Royal Caribbean and Oceania. We were not disappointed but we were occasionally surprised. Silversea fellow travellers we found extremely loyal to the cruise line and were in many respects the best advocates for the company. In fact, we were telling people that we wanted to try Seabourn for a future cruis ...

Better than NCL Sun

We were on a South America Cruise with NCl Sun. The attitude of the staff was more to be desired. Food just ok. We tried this NCL Jewel for Cruise from Sydney to Hong Kong. Entertainment was average to below expectation. Same artists rotating to take their turns. Little changed. On Sea day, the ship entertainment is dead. Nothing happening and the daily programme is the same like the previous ...
